The name may be familiar to older readers. but few of them will have driven past the current factory.
When the Queen opened British Motor Corporation's Turkish offshoot, she probably didn't expect that It would outsurvive the home operation.
In many ways, the BMC philosophy echos the last days of the British Industry, with home-brewed chassis and cabs powered by bought-in drivelines.
It even manages to throw a big-name Italian styling house, Pin rfarra, into the equation.
The running gear is Cummins ISBe engines, di-lying ZF transmissions and Mentor axles.
Even the larger wide-track models only come in a narrow cab version, but a sleeper is available.
The interior could not be compared with the latest mainstream rivals in terms of layout or quality, but everything does its intended job.
As well as its distribution chassis cabs, BMC also caters for the off-the-shelf speciality markets, with a range of skip loaders, tankers and RCVs ready to work.
